✔ Flexible & Durable – Stranded copper ensures bend resistance.
✔ Safety Certified – UL1007-rated for flame resistance and electrical safety.
✔ Easy Identification – Red/black color coding simplifies wiring.
Limitations & Considerations
⚠ Current Limit: 20 AWG is best for low-current (<3A) applications; higher currents require thicker wires (e.g., 18 AWG).
⚠ Temperature Sensitivity: Not suitable for high-heat environments (>80°C).
⚠ Voltage Limitation: Only rated for 300V max (not for AC mains power).
Conclusion
The FL-2P male/female connector cable with 1007-20# red & black wires is a versatile, safe, and cost-effective solution for low-voltage DC wiring in electronics, automotive, and industrial applications. Its UL-certified insulation, flexible stranded copper conductors, and standardized color coding make it ideal for both professional and DIY use.
